Michelle Pfeiffer Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Michelle Pfeiffer:

I used to smoke two packs a day and I just hate being a nonsmoker... but I will never consider myself a nonsmoker because I always find smokers the most interesting people at the table.

I probably would like to do more than I do, because I love working, but I can't work more than I work because I have to do some facetime with the family, and the work that I do is just all-encompassing.

Michelle Pfeiffer

I look like a duck. It's the way my mouth curls up, or my nose tilts up. I should have played Howard the Duck.

Michelle Pfeiffer

You know, when I am working, I take really, really good care of myself. I eat really well, and I exercise, and again, I have this team of people pulling me together every day.

Michelle Pfeiffer

I say really stupid things sometimes. When I go back and watch some of my old interviews from when I was younger, I just cringe.

Michelle Pfeiffer

People make a lot of jokes about the empty nest. Let me tell you, it is no laughing matter. It is really hard.

Michelle Pfeiffer

My kids would probably say that I'm too strict. They probably would say that, and I try not to be, but I'm probably more on the conservative end of that. At the same time, I know full well that ultimately I don't really have control over them.

Michelle Pfeiffer

I do think that, at one time, being an actress was the equivalent almost of being a prostitute. It garnered roughly the same respect. That's changed a lot, thank goodness.

Michelle Pfeiffer

Just standing around looking beautiful is so boring.

Michelle Pfeiffer

I feel less pressure to dress youthfully. I'm 50 and everyone knows I'm 50 - who are you kidding? Jeans are my uniform. I have about 15 pairs.

Michelle Pfeiffer

Well, I'm very stubborn. I think I have common sense; I'm probably at times a bit tunnel-visioned, but I'm strong.

Michelle Pfeiffer

I do find comedy difficult. I don't know why. Maybe I think about it too much. There's a tremendous amount of pressure to be funny.

Michelle Pfeiffer

When I wasn't working I didn't know what to do with myself and sort of didn't exist, in a way, when I wasn't working, so I was like two different people. I am not like that anymore.

Michelle Pfeiffer

There have been people in my life who have told me I have to put myself out there more. But it's so hard for me to do that.

Michelle Pfeiffer

I used to smoke two packs a day and I just hate being a nonsmoker... but I will never consider myself a nonsmoker because I always find smokers the most interesting people at the table.

Michelle Pfeiffer

For me, getting comfortable with being famous was hard - that whole side of it, the loss of anonymity, the loss of privacy. Giving up that part of your life and not having control of it.

Michelle Pfeiffer

Even though I don't feel I need approval, it's still important to me to give a good performance. I'm hard on myself.

Michelle Pfeiffer

Like all parents, my husband and I just do the best we can, hold our breath and hope we've set aside enough money for our kid's therapy.

Michelle Pfeiffer

I don't know if it's naivete or just narcissism, but I start out with this notion that I can do anything. It's not until I get into it that I realize what I've thrown myself into, and then I will do anything not to humiliate myself. And that, I think, is the secret to my success.

Michelle Pfeiffer

Just when you think you've got your kids figured out, they change on you. For somebody who's controlling, you can't control it. Of course, I don't think I'm controlling, but that's what I've been told!

Michelle Pfeiffer

First of all, plain and simple, you have no real idea of what it means to be famous until you become famous. It's a double-edged sword. Obviously there are a lot of amazing things about fame, but there are also a lot of challenging things about it.

Michelle Pfeiffer

I'm a Taurus. To the bone.

Michelle Pfeiffer

My walk is consistently made fun of.

Michelle Pfeiffer

I guess I sort of just feel like I am lucky.

Michelle Pfeiffer

When I was very young I never thought I was attractive, because I was a tomboy and I was always the biggest girl in the class.

Michelle Pfeiffer

My grandmother raised five children during the Depression by herself. At 50, she threw her sewing machine into the back of a pickup truck and drove from North Dakota to California. She was a real survivor, so that's my stock. That's how I want my kids to be too.

Michelle Pfeiffer

The whole celebrity thing never is normal and I think the fuller your life is, the more you are able to just kind of call a truce with it on a good day.
